Answer:
Some people are worried about the equipment that people use for the Paralympic Games because they are worried the prosthetic legs may give the runner an advantage. The text says that technology has improved a lot, so some of the artificial legs that people use may be able to run faster than what the wearer can naturally run.
As for the last part, I will give you my opinion to help but I encourage you to try to think of your own because you know this is an opinion thing and everyone is different.
I think that leaders should make a change, because like the text said, single amputees might feel discouraged from entering the running competitions because they know that the double amputees potentially have an advantage. It would basically be like cheating. The leaders should do a background check of what the double amputees are using, so that they know the artificial legs only allow the person to run at the speed they are naturally capable of
Hi there!
This is an opinion based question, but I would love to give you another point of view.
In the book “The Giver”, Jonas lives in a very “black and white” society. There is no feeling. There is no enjoyment. Everything is... the same.
Of course this is what they wanted the society to be like, but they could not understand when they took away all the feelings of pain and suffering, they took away all the feelings of love as well.
I enjoyed the book very much.
Hope this helps you!

Answer: True
Explanation:
With so many people claiming the ''Benefit of clergy'' to avoid proper punishments for their crimes, the English courts needed a more powerful deterrent for crimes.
The Penal Transportation Act of 1718 was the solution. It allowed the courts to sentence convicts to seven years transportation to the American colonies. If the prisoners returned before then, it would be treated as a capital offence.
